The study was conducted to validate the piezoelectric performance of the proposed material and its suitability for the cantilever structure. The PMMA/Ce-ZnO makes the cantilever structure more flexible and performs better. The frequency response is applied to the beam using an electrical circuit to analyze the power and voltage output. The acceleration is given to the cantilever beams to analyze their resonant frequencies. The change in resonant frequencies results in a high voltage and power output. The resistive loads are used in the circuit to find the electrical load. The frequency response is analyzed in three different inner (18 mm, 20 mm, 22 mm) and outer (23 mm, 25mm, 27 mm) active layer lengths of beams. As a result, the maximum voltage of 21.94 V with 13.67 mW power and 2.9 mA current is obtained at a resonant frequency of 51.06 Hz and 1 g acceleration amplitude, which are approximately 42%, 45% and 15% higher voltage, power and current obtained from the lowest performer of proposed piezoelectric cantilevers. The experiment results are validated using the hybrid DBN-SSO (Deep Belief Network based Salp Swarm Optimization) machine learning technique. The proposed DBN-SSO achieved 0.9998 and 0.9966 regression coefficients for voltage and power outputs, thus proving the fitness of predicted results with the experiments. As per findings, a 27 mm inner and 18 mm outer active layer based energy harvesting system is suggested as a suitable energy source where ever 10-12 mW power, 2.5-2.9 mA current and 20-21.94 V voltage are applicable.","PeriodicalId":55888,"journal":{"name":"Noise and Vibration Worldwide","volume":" 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135241529","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The inertia or damping effects are very crucial in the time scale of loading. The present work determines the time domain analysis of railway locomotive using finite element analysis for Indian tracks. The track inputs are modelled as an ellipsoidal bump, and variations in displacement at different key locations of the truck and carbody models are plotted subjected to standard loading conditions. The response plot of the front and rear locations of the locomotive truck and carbody indicate that these regions are more responsive to wheel inputs in comparison to the mid portion due to unbalanced mass distribution. In the further study vertical-lateral random inputs are measured through track recording car and modelled to express in the form of PSD. These random inputs are provided to finite element modelled flexible bogie frame, and acceleration response is determined. The results obtained are compared with the same obtained from rigid bogie frame formulated using an analytical model. The results obtained from the flexible and rigid body models are found to be in good agreement.","PeriodicalId":55888,"journal":{"name":"Noise and Vibration Worldwide","volume":"27 17","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135681292","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A full-scale and a 1:8 scale-down computational fluid dynamics model of a high-speed train are established. The far-field sound pressure level at several receivers and velocities is calculated by using the transient large eddy simulation and the FW-H equation. The numerical simulation results are used to predict the aerodynamic noise under specified working conditions. The research work can achieve the prediction of aerodynamic noise at other velocities using noise data at known velocities on the same noise source case, as well as the prediction of aerodynamic noise of full-scale model using data of scale-down model, and is applicable to either bogies as local noise sources or the complete vehicle as a noise source. The maximum error between the prediction and simulation result is 0.33 dBA under various working conditions, which meets the engineering calculation requirements.","PeriodicalId":55888,"journal":{"name":"Noise and Vibration Worldwide","volume":"17 9","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135684523","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, the AMESim model of the hydraulic shock absorber is established, and the Kriging model is used to approximate the parameters of the AMESim hydraulic shock absorber model; the multi-island genetic algorithm and the gradient descent algorithm are used to obtain the three scenarios in which the cross-sectional area ratios of the throttle orifices of the same equivalent damping coefficients are greater than, equal to, or less than one. Then, a co-simulation model of 1/4 vehicle Recurdyn/AMESim and a co-simulation model of the whole vehicle with 162 degrees of freedom were established. The result show that, compared with the traditional method, this machine-hydraulic co-simulation method improves the calculation accuracy, calculation speed, and co-simulation model parameter accuracy. For low-speed conditions, when the throttle orifice area ratio equals 0.32, the minimum vehicle body center acceleration (root mean square value equal to 1.78 m/s 2 ) is achieved.

The theoretical and simulation results of the four validation cases show that the optimized MNSR can achieve quasi-perfect sound absorption at all target frequencies, which is consistent with the optimization objective.

Schlieren flow visualization indicates the presence of a shear layer and the other shock features that are associated with the cavity flow field. In order to obtain the experimental results, data analysis was performed in the unsteady data Using statistical analytical techniques i.e., Fast Fourier Transform, Short Time Fourier Transform, and Coherence.

The acoustic responses, including sound-power level (dB), sound-pressure level (dB), and sound-radiation efficiency, are evaluated using Rayleigh’s integral and modal superposition method. The sound power levels are presented up to the selected bandwidth, as well as the octave band center frequency. In contrast, the sound pressure levels are presented as contour plots and in directivity pattern. The buckling load, calculated for quadratically decreasing axial load, is applied in increments from 0 to its highest value. The study reveals that the highest value in the gradation indexes in both directions significantly influences the sound power levels. It is also evident from the study that thin beams have higher sound power levels compared to thick beams. The directivity pattern reveals that bi-directional functionally graded beams predict higher sound pressure levels at the critical buckling load. From the current acoustic study, it is observed that both structural and end stiffness are influential factors in sound power levels (dB) and sound pressure levels (dB).","PeriodicalId":55888,"journal":{"name":"Noise and Vibration Worldwide","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134960991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
